Hello everyone,
I don't know if this has been brought up before, and I can't check obviously because all the old posts have gone.
About a year after readiing TRST, I'm now reading A Void by Geroge Perec. It's a great book. I stumble across a tramp-like character called Tryphiodorus, and for a few days I'm pondering where this sounds familiar from. Then I remember - Trey Fiodorus.
I'm at a loss as to the meaning of this, especially as I haven't finished A Void yet, so I don't know the full part of Tryphiodorus, and secondly because my copy of TRST is with a friend.
I just wanted to share that in case it hasn't come up before, and to also recommend A Void, It's such a humerous book, it's lovely.
TTFN. Pete.

I just noticed that it's Fidorous, not fiodorus.
Was this likness of names intentional Steven. It seems too close to be coincidence.
